Neonatal hemolytic disease: good nursing measures are the key

If a newborn develops hemolytic disease, it will still induce a series of other diseases, so we must take disinfection measures to prevent jaundice. Parents should also pay attention to scientific feeding of the baby. If anything is found wrong, seek medical attention in time.

1. Take good disinfection measures

Babies with neonatal hemolytic disease have much lower body resistance and immunity than normal children. So if your baby is in the hospital, then you don’t have to worry too much, after all, the hospital’s disinfection measures will be more professional. Parents should not disturb the baby. If the bacteria are transmitted to the baby, it may pose a threat to the baby's life.

2 Preventing jaundice

Jaundice is a typical feature of neonatal hemolytic disease. Parents should follow the doctor's instructions and supplement their baby with albumin and enzyme inducers. Treatment can also be provided by phototherapy and exchange transfusion. At the same time, don't forget to correct your baby's acidosis, which can reduce the chance of bilirubin encephalopathy.

3 Scientific and reasonable feeding

During the period of jaundice, babies usually show weakness in feeding. At this time, parents should feed their babies patiently and adjust the feeding method as needed. Such as feeding in small amounts and multiple times, intermittent feeding, etc., to ensure the amount of milk needed for the baby's growth and development. This will reduce the harm of the disease to the baby.

4. Observe the condition carefully

Neonatal hemolytic disease is not a minor disease. It is caused by genetics. If a baby gets this disease, it is easy to have a serious impact on the nerves. Parents should observe their baby's condition in a timely manner, and if something is wrong, they should call a doctor for treatment immediately.
